YNs' POV:

The pain in your arm has subsided to a dull ache, and you're able to think a little clearer. Well, it doesn't look like he's going anywhere anytime soon.

Soul Archer is still floating in front of you, unmoving, keeping his bowstring drawn taut at you. Then you hear a faint shout, and moments later, the ship you're on gives a massive jolt, throwing you out of your chair. You roll upright, and as Soul Archer distractedly says "What?-" you jump up and touch your cuffs to the tip of his arrow.

Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease.. The cuffs turn translucent and fall off your wrists. YES!!!

"I had a blast, but if it doesn't matter to you, I'll be going now!" You yell at him, blasting his particles apart with matter. I spend too much time listening to Jay. I'm glad the particle blast worked, though. Thanks for the tip, Morro.

You speedily heal your arm, using your power to bandage your arm with matter, and regrow the missing tissue. Then you run out of the room and come face-to-face with another ghost. You blindly prepare to blast him too, but he puts a steadying hand on your wrist.

"Whoa! Easy, YN! It's me, Morro! We've come to rescue you!"

"Morro?!" You quickly hug him. "How'd you find me?"

"I'm a ghost. I just phased through rooms until I found you. How'd you get your cuffs off?"

"Got them ghosted. Soul Archer wasn't pleased when I used his arrow to help me escape."

Morro grins at you. "Clever woman. I would've loved to have seen that."

A piercing shriek resounds throughout the ship, and you look up at Morro sharply. "Sorry, did you say we? As in the other ninja? Who are fighting Bansha alone? Without us?"

"Let's go!" Morro grabs your hand and you start to run upwards together, using your powers to blast and blow apart hostile ghosts.

Eventually you reach the top deck, and you do a double-take. "There are so many ghosts!" You gasp.

"Bansha must have summoned reinforcements. But then that means"..

"Oh, crud!" Kai yells. "Not her again!"

You glance in the direction he's pointing, and you nearly become sick. You see a portal hovering in midair over the ship, but that isn't what makes you so ill. Rather, it's the revolting mass of groping tentacles that's slowly emerging from it.

"Yep, she's just as ugly as I remember!" Jay shouts. One of the tentacles slaps him and sends him flying. "Ow, she's still pretty sensitive, too!"

"What the heck is that, Morro?!" You yell at your ghostly companion.

"It's the Preeminent, YN. The Cursed Realm itself, and my old master."

"Your old!-" A tentacle lands with a thud and rocks the ship. Just another day in Ninjago..

"I have formulated a course of action." Zane says. He throws a shuriken at the Crystal, and Bansha drops it. As the Crystal falls, the portal abruptly starts to close, and the tentacles recoil as if stung, quickly withdrawing back through the portal before it disappears.

"Yes! Nice one, Zane!" Cole cheers.

Bansha makes a move to grab the Crystal, but a gust of wind from Morro lifts it off the deck and deposits it straight into his open hand. "You don't have the Crystal anymore. So what are you going to do now, Bansha?" He asks her mockingly. You have a feeling that he's repeating something that Bansha told him earlier.

The fighting on the ship momentarily ceases as all eyes are now on the two ghosts.

.."The only thing left for me to do." She hisses at him. Then she lets out another ear-splitting screech and dives straight at you. You scream and throw up a shield of matter, trying to defend yourself. Bansha hits it and she explodes, her particles falling around you and onto your head, like snow. You blink, and they disappear.

"YN, are you alright?" Morro asks you concernedly. You smile at him.

Have a blessed Christmas, everyone!  I wish you well!  This is my gift to all of you, I hope you enjoy!
